Apps built around your business. AI wired into the work.
Grizzly Paw Technology designs and builds custom web and mobile apps, and helps businesses add AI to the tasks that eat their week: sorting, drafting, summarizing, and looking things up.
Based in Parker, Colorado. Working with clients anywhere.
Illustrative example: AI sorts and drafts, a person approves.
Custom app development
If your team runs on spreadsheets, group texts, and paper, an app built for your exact process usually pays for itself quickly. I build it, host it, and keep it running.
Installs from the browser to an iPhone, Android, or desktop home screen. No app store wait.
Keeps working when the signal drops, then syncs when it returns.
Hosted on Netlify with your own domain.
- Scheduling, roles, and invoicingStaff and client logins, bookings, and billing in one place.
- Customer and staff portalsRequests, status, documents, and messages without the email chains.
- Dashboards on live dataPull from public feeds or your own systems and keep the numbers fresh.
- Field and mobile toolsForms, checklists, and lookups that work on a phone in a truck or a warehouse.
- Audio, media, and creative toolsEditors, recorders, and players that run entirely in the browser.
AI integration for businesses
You don't need an AI strategy deck. You need one slow, repetitive task made faster, and a way to trust the result. I help you find that task, build it into the tools you already use, and keep a person in charge.
Draft and summarize
Emails, meeting notes, reports, and show notes drafted in your voice, ready for a quick edit.
Sort and extract
Read incoming messages, forms, and documents, then route them or pull the fields into your system.
Answer from your own documents
Give staff a place to ask questions and get answers based on your procedures, not the open internet.
Voice and private assistants
Hands-free helpers, including versions that run on your own hardware when data has to stay in the building.
- Look at the workflowFind the task where time is being lost.
- Build a small prototypeTest it on real examples from your business.
- Put it to workConnect it to your tools and your team.
- Watch and adjustCheck quality and cost, then improve it.
Built with guardrails. Important actions wait for human approval, keys and customer data stay on the server side, and you'll know what the AI is allowed to touch.
Start with a free workflow review
In a 30-minute call we'll walk through how your business runs day to day and pick the one or two tasks where AI would save the most time. There's no charge and no obligation, and you'll leave with a short list of what's worth doing first.
Things I've built

Who you'll work with
I'm Doc Pearson, a technologist and IT consultant in Parker, Colorado. I design, build, and deploy the apps myself, from the first sketch to the live domain, so you're talking to the person doing the work.
Away from client projects I host The AI Podcast and The Healing Music Podcast, and I wrote The PERSUE Files. Making audio tools for my own shows is part of why I build them well for other people.
Tell me what you're trying to get done
Describe the app you need, or the process you'd like AI to help with. A few sentences is plenty.
